According to the Military Human Rights Center, on the 25th, a superior was found dead in the case of the death of a female soldier who was a victim of sexual harassment in the Air Force.



The Military Human Rights Center said, "Sergeant A, who was arrested on charges of secondary assault, threats of retaliation, and forced interview, was found unconscious at around 2:55 pm yesterday, and was transported to a private hospital, but died."



According to the Military Human Rights Center, Sergeant A was detained and imprisoned in the Unconfirmed Prison Room of the Military Police Battalion of the Ministry of National Defense Service Support Group, a unit directly under the Ministry of National Defense.



The center said, "The death of Sergeant A is clearly the Ministry of National Defense's negligence in management." "He was implicated in and indicted in a case of high social interest and required close management, but the Ministry of National Defense recognized the complacency that this happened in broad daylight This worked,” he said.



“As Sergeant A died before the first trial on August 6, it would be difficult to ascertain the cause of the victim’s death, such as the relentless second infliction of the subordinates against the victim and attempts to cover up the incident. "He said.
